What is a Due Diligence Investigation & why should one be conducted?


A due diligence investigation needs to be conducted to assess the qualifications and track records of the people involved in a certain business transaction. This type of investigation needs to identify or reveal if there are any potential inconsistencies, misrepresentations, omissions or controversies.

Why you should use professional forensic image enhancement services

Imagine a crime happens and your CCTV cameras catch the entire scenario, the only problem is that the video or images are not of high enough quality to show the criminals face or the vehicle registration number.

Image result for image enhancement

If there are no good frames available that means that case will go unsolved.

However, digital forensic experts often have the means and the correct specialized software to digitally enhance an image and aid in solving the case.

Our TCG digital forensics team are able to provide static image enhancement as well as digital video enhancements. Please bear in mind that results are most often dependant on the quality of the original image and we will require the highest resolution output that you are able to deliver before we can assess what the enhancement potential will be.

While we would dearly love to provide a “CSI” type service where the smallest reflection in someone’s sunglasses reveals a crystal clear image of a suspect – this is limited to what we term “the elusive Hollywood” computer system.

We will gladly review your image(s) at our Cape Town or Pretoria offices and offer you a no-charge assessment of how much adaptive work can be done with the images you have available. From that point we will be able to offer an estimate of costs. Contact TCG Forensics on 087 001 0523 or email contact@tcgforensics.co.za
